Wo0 is the founding member of the Belgrade Noise Society, a small group of artists doing some strange things with the medium of sound. As an avant-guitarist Wo0, who has honed his art by performing with the likes of Fennesz, has christened his style as Sky-Noise.
Utilising his guitar as a receiver of signals, Wo0 captures the frequencies from radios, computers, media players, remote controls, phones and other inventive mobile devices to create a very subtle, harmonic, deep and oscillating sound.
His attempt to amplify the air has resulted in With the Flowered Mind a quite brilliant addition to the Phantom Channel catalogue.

slow motion melodic throb ambient music
A genuine "closed eyes, lying down on the bed with fairy lights on" album this is... but there is a bit more to it than that. Across the three tracks there is a running theme of slowly shifting and repeating ambience, but listening more closely, you can perceive the tuning of distant radios and machinery, firework like squeals and crunchy siren-like guitars.
"With The Flowered Mind" is some seriously sleepy slow motion melodic throb ambient music. Waves undulate gently, punctuated by slightly psychedelic details and breathy groans and a gentle fuzz warms the serene loops that build in barely noticable stages.
